ok, so my name is nick, i have a 91 2.3 liter mustang lx hatchback. i have been haveing alot of trouble lately with the car and i am open to any suggestions. i am a new mustang owner and dont know alot yet. but lets cut to the chase, when im running the car it seems that one of the cylinders is failing to fire which results in very low speed and stalls. i replaced my ignition coils and spark plugs with wires and they dont seem to be the problem, anyone with advice or knowledge please post

thanks nick

In this order I would try to -
1) Clean the IAC
2) Clean the MAF
3) disconnect the battery for 20 min and re-set the base idle( many times you may have solved the issue, but the computer wont pick it up)
4) if problems still persist I woud Check the DIS module(they fail without warning)
5) If all the above doesnt help that means you arent getting fuel. go through and change the fuel filter. and check your injectors.
